BA Terminal 5 artworks
'Cloud' is a kinetic structure that Troika saw as a solution to creating a sculpture that would welcome passengers in a spectacular way and a spectacle the piece certainly is.
The stylised cloud form is suspended between the escalators, evoking a sense of elevation away from the hustle and bustle of the airport. The drifting clouds in flight use over 5,000 flip-dots that have been specially developed to allow a constantly changing appearance throughout the day and creating a sense of motion.
